Re: Exchange 2003 Black Lists

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

To ensure RBLs are working you can also check perfmon counters.
Perfmon object: MSExchange Transport Filter Sink
Counters (each have their /sec equivalents):
- Connections Rejected by Block List Providers
- Block List DNS Queries Issued

and also:
- Failed Block List DNS Queries

Thanks. That makes sense! :)

I've checked out my SMTP logs, but what I'm I supposed to see in order to
know that the Black lists are working? I've looked through the logs for
the
relay codes but didn't find any. Can you or someone post an example?

Thanks,
Mike

Hello,

I've configure my exchange server to use blacklists to help reduce the
amount of spam we are receiving. When something is blocked/rejected,
does
exchange store the rejected source in a log file somewhere on the
server?
Do
I need to enable this?

Thanks,
Mike
